PURPOSE
==========
I have written this FAQ to outline the fighter Ashrah. She is my favourite new
character and is very powerful when you know how to use her correctly. The
thing that drew me towards Ashrah first was her impressive attire- I love the
white garments that she wears and the hat makes her look very unique. Once you
scratch the surface, you’ll notice her impressive array of special moves and
magical abilities. This gives every possible piece of information about Ashrah
you could ever want. Enjoy.

STORY
=========
-------
BIO
-------
Place of Origin: Netherrealm
Alignment: Good
Allies: Shujinko
Foes: Ermac, Noob Saibot, Brotherhood of Shadow
Ashrah is a demon who has discovered means for escaping the Netherrealm...a
holy sword. To achieve her goal of purification, she must slay powerful evil
such as Noob Saibot with the sword. Each denizen of the netherrealm she defeats
brings her closer to freedom.
-------------------
FIRST PERSON BIO
-------------------
I am a demon, a denizen of the Netherrealm. For ages, my sisters and I have
blindly served Quan Chi as members of the Brotherhood of the Shadow. But I
questioned a command given by the sorcerer. To set an example, he sent my own
sister to slay me. During my escape, I discovered a weapon - a sword - that
seemed to be of heavenly origin. With each demonic assassin that has fallen to
this blade, I have felt a strange exhilaration. It is as if the taint of evil
is leaving me.
Now I understand the strange sensation I feel when I exterminate a demon of the
Netherrealm with this sword. The sword is purifying me as I cleanse the world
of evil. With each fiend I eradicate, my presence here becomes more
unstable...soon I will be expelled from this realm. If I were to slay a
powerful demon such as Noob Saibot, I would finally become an ascending demon,
free from the Netherrealm forever.
---------
ENDING
---------
Noob Saibot was not originally a demon, which might explain why Ashrah sensed
such a great evil in him: He had to earn his place in the Netherrealm. He
actually desired to remain there. His companion, however, seemed to be having a
problem adjusting. Perhaps there was some good left in the cyborg. Whatever the
case, Noob would have to face Ashrah alone. Ashrah defeated Noob Saibot and
finally earned her ascension from the Netherrealm. But the sword that made her
travel possible did not travel with her. I suspect it still remains in the
Netherrealm, waiting to release another of its denizens from damnation.

SPECIAL MOVES

Heavenly Light- D,B+1
She throws a ball of white energy into the air, which falls down on the
opponent’s head; I think Kai had this move in mk4.
Lightning Blast- D,F+1
She conjures up a ball of red energy, which works as a close projectile.
Spin Cycle- D,U+3
She spins vertically, deadly if the opponent walks into her.
Nature’s Torpedo- F,F+4
She spins horizontally at the opponent driving her head into the opponents
chest, a bit like Raiden’s flying dive move from previous games.
-------------------------
FATALITIES & HARA-KIRI
-------------------------
Voodoo- D,D,U,U,2 (close)
She spins backwards and pulls out a voodoo doll.
She repeatedly stabs it with her kriss
which reflects on her opponent.
Magic Melt- F,D,F,D,2 (sweep)
Her hands glow blue and she waves them about a
little. She brings them to the floor and her opponent
also starts to glow blue. Then she thrusts them to the
sky and her opponent’s body parts start melting.
Spin Out of control- U,D,U,U,2
She spins like hell until she glows blue and her body parts
fly everywhere.
--------------
GET UP MOVE
--------------
Not so much a move but its cool anyway. If you are defeated in a match Ashrah
spins herself up.
==============
GOOD COMBOS
==============
Here a few good combos to use when in a tight situation. They are very
effective and do a lot of damage. They are all in the Chou Jaio fighting style
(I named them myself):
White Blossom- 34% damage- 10 Hits
2, 2, 1 CS 3, F+3, 1, 2, 2, 3
Power Behind a Veil- 36% damage- 12 Hits
2, 2, 1 CS 3, F+3, CS CS 2,2,1 CS 2,2 CS
(The double CS is to change back to Chou Jaio after the style branch)
=====================
ASHRAH IN KONQUEST
=====================
Once you finish all the possible side quests in the village, go to location C-6
to train with Ashrah. Talk to her and Shujinko will say that she doesn’t look
like a Netherrealm demon, to which Ashrah replies that she was once like other
demons but she found a holy sword, which allows her to slay other demons. She
then says Shujinko does not look like he belongs here, to which he replies that
he is from Earthrealm. Ashrah offers to train him to protect him from the evil
denizens that reside here. These are the moves that you must perform to pass
her training:

battle. FIGHT!”
Basically you have to defeat Ashrah. The best plan is to move around a lot, and
utilize strong combos and special moves.
Mission Complete!
When you defeat Ashrah, she tells you she has taught you the techniques for
defeating Netherrealm demons. She then talks of a test outside the gates that
she has for you. She says she will find a suitable opponent for you, to which
Shujinko accepts the challenge. You are now allowed outside of the village.
